| https://halrogers.house.gov/press-releases?ID=5F999EBB-9EAF-4BFE-B52D-987E7C5F0CF5 | Congress Passes Bipartisan Farm Bill | 2018-12-12 | 2018 | 2018-12 | Republican | House | KY | Harold Rogers | R000395 | halrogers.house.gov | halrogers | https://halrogers.house.gov/press-releases | scraper | "The Farm Bill provides important investments for infrastructure projects, like access to broadband and clean water in rural America. It also strengthens the nation's flagship nutrition program, while boosting workforce development and addiction treatment resources," said Congressman Rogers. "This legislation modernizes the SNAP program in a way that helps participants get back on their feet, while preserving resources for the most vulnerable among us who can't afford basic necessities. It also strengthens the farm safety net, cuts burdensome red tape and supports future farmers." "I'm pleased that this bill invests in broadband development, working in concert with our vision for Kentucky Wired, which will provide connectivity to every county in the state, starting with Eastern Kentucky," said Rogers. The Farm Bill also directs the U.S. Department of Agriculture to prioritize Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) assistance for producers striving to stabilize water resources and cost-share practices, which improve drought resiliency and agricultural productivity. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-06-27T23:11:43Z |
